FAIRY RINGS (Ireland)

6 savarin dough rings (baba)
1 cup heavy cream
1 package green gelatine (pre-pared according to directions)
½ cup Irish Mist liqueur

  1. Dip baked rings in the liqueur.
  2. Fill each ring with whipped cream.
  3. Sprinkle with the chopped green gelatine.

These delicacies are a modern replacement for the oaten cakes dipped in honey that Irish ancestors used to eat. Irish Mist is made from old Irish whiskey, herbal essences and honey. It is the nearest approach to the heather wine, or mead, which was so prized long ago, that it was known as "the dainty drink of the nobles".
